Consider it returned.

The Eyes Have It

February 11th, 2010

Was tying my shoe when I got the feeling I was being watched…surveillance camera on a pole in front of a painted pair of eyes, 3rd St. Promenade in Santa Monica, California.

International Bigtime Wrestling Selects

February 4th, 2010

Finally, a few selects from last year’s International Bigtime Wrestling event in Mexicantown, Detroit. There was wonderful food, fake blood (no really), fantastic showmanship, and some menacing escaped convicts just hanging out with the kids. Originally posted about this back in July, 2009.

Waiting For Lens Calibration

January 31st, 2010

Finally, the old Summicron-M 2/35 is getting a much needed tune up at Leica NJ: focus calibration, focus mount fix, general cleaning and the all-new 6 bit coding. Got it used in 2000 (I think) in Kalamazoo and really never had it checked out. I remember screwing down a loose base plate in ‘04 with tweezers “in the field” in Ketchum, ID. 4-6 weeks ETA.

Start A Juicy Day

At the counter of an area Coney Island. A hint of health behind (or in front of) every chili cheese fry and coney dog.

Dave Bennett Recording Session

January 9th, 2010

Recently was invited by Ed Wolfrum to a Detroit recording session for Dave Bennett, clarinet phenom deluxe. I can’t say enough good things about this musician. If you like Benny Goodman (think Carnegie Hall 1938), you’ll be very surprised. CD from this session forthcoming. Go to www.davebennett.com for release and show information.

Season’s Greetings From Your Sinclair Dealer

December 26th, 2009

And even more greetings from a Christmas Day drive thru the backroads, all fossil-powered and very traditional. That’s Santa back there with the Misses, behind the dinosaur.

The Christmas Bulb

December 18th, 2009

Nearing the end of the year, a time to sit back and edit all those shots that stretch years into the past. Many not scanned, resting like cordwood on contact sheets under camera parts and cans of air. Changed my OS so many times that I’m sure the scanner needs emergency driver updates too. But here, I’ve found the secret to Santa’s lead sleigh-runner. And in case I become forgetful, Merry Christmas! Bring on 2010.
